The Greatest Husky Teams of All-Time (updated)
Also know there was talk about his heading into this season I haven't seen post season. Where does the 2023 ultimately land in the conversation of greatest Husky teams of all-time? Keep in mind to me this isn't just a who would win on a neutral field thing. It's considering accomplishments.
- 1991 - no question
- 1984 - Legit Natty claim
- 1960 - Legit Natty claim
- 1959 - Close to a Natty claim I thought once. Blew out #6 Wisconsin to close the season
- 2023 - Hate putting a team Top 5 that lost by 21 to close and considered putting teams that closed with a win ahead of them but you can also think that they closed with a Sugar Bowl win over #3 Texas and just had to play another game.
- 1990 - Closed with 12-point Rose Bowl win. One of their losses was a close one at the eventually national champion
- 2016 - Straight up one game man I love this team's talent. Lacking big time wins and the way they lost to USC hurts them though.
- 2000 - Rose Bowl and Miami wins huge. Forget this team in my opinion should have played for the natty and could have beaten Oklahoma
- 1981 - Blowout Rose Bowl win. Don't like they got blown out twice though in their losses.
- 1982 - Was #1 for a while and so close to a bigger season
Others considered: 2022, 1977, 1992, 1980, 2018

Thanks Woolley!

No huge qualms with this list.
Observation: Other than possibly '89-'93, I will put my years at UW ('80-'84) up against anyone's for best overall stretch over a similar (5-year) span.

True story… ASU beat UW 26-7 in 1981 on my birthday. Chuck Nelson mailed me a letter in part apologizing for that loss.

Did Nelson miss seven field goals or something?

Hold on I gotta go hang my banner.
More thought I might put 77 higher. Closing strong is so big in college football and no blowout losses.

31 to zip to of course Ucla

Race?
